Suspension of health and long-term care insurance benefits in the event of unpaid contributions to the artists' social insurance fund
Service Description
You are obliged to pay your monthly contributions to the statutory health and long-term care insurance - i.e. the social security contributions - punctually and in full to the Künstlersozialkasse (KSK).
If you do not pay your contributions on time and in full, your statutory health and long-term care insurance benefits may be suspended. In this case, you will have to pay for almost all medical treatment yourself. There are only a few exceptions.
Process flow
The KSK checks daily whether you pay your contributions to statutory health and long-term care insurance regularly and punctually.
- If you do not pay your contributions in full and on time, the KSK will send you a written reminder.
- If you still do not pay your contributions in full, the KSK will check the amount of the arrears in statutory health insurance and social long-term care insurance separately.
- If contributions are still outstanding after a further reminder, the so-called suspension reminder, you will receive a notice stating that your benefits have been suspended.
- The KSK will continue to check your contribution payments.
-
Health and long-term care insurance will pay for your medical treatment again as soon as you
- the arrears in contributions and
- and any reminder fees and late payment surcharges.
